b110 (5.16-1.2022): i don't expect a thing

i don’t expect a thing [1]
by anna g. ivers
 
i offer you the gifts that most could never, ever bring
and if your mood might shift
i don’t expect a thing

________________________________ 

·       if you begin to expect anything of me, expect me to be exactly who you know me to be.
   o   …not who you wish me to be…  not who you hope me to be…

·       in fact, you’d be better off to not expect a thing… because who i am is a giver of now-moments, not a promiser of future-now-moments.
